Panorama Survey


Pickerington Students in grades 3-12 will participate in the Panorama Survey.

The survey will provide us with social and emotional learning (SEL) information. SEL is the process through which children and adults apply the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions. These are the skill sets that promote success in life. If you do not want your student to participate, please complete the attached opt out form and return it to our school counselor, Annette White, by March 3rd.
